Gap 11/18Cost $26.05
$24.99 Sweater (on 50% off sale)$19.50 other shirt$6.50 pair of socks= $50.99 + tax
Back in August, Groupon offered $50 at the Gap for $25.  November 18 was the last day to redeem it for $50 (after that date it would be $25).  Anyway, I found 2 shirts I liked and that fit, which wasn’t quite $50, so I threw in a pair of socks.  Although the Groupon stated it would not apply to certain sale items, the sweater sale price was allowed.  I checked with the cashier before buying.
So the math:$50.99 - $25 + $0.06 tax = $26.05 for 2 shirts for work and a pair of socks.  I think that’s a good deal.
And yes, the -$50 Groupon on the receipt reduced the taxable total to only $0.99, so that saved me about $3 too!
